This is how I feel, and I know a lot of folks who are in a similar boat. We're sold this story of being financially stable, having a house, a car, and being able to retire, but for a lot of Americans that is looking more and more like a pipe dream each day.

The poorly educated/informed people eat up the propaganda like candy, vote against their own interests, and tear down everyone around them in hopes that they'll be on top one day, and it simply won't happen in the present state our country is in.

If you aren't cooking by vibe, are you really living?

Baking on the other hand...

I'm not OP, but I also prefer KDE over Cinnamon. The size/spacing of the buttons on the left side of the start menu/application launcher looks weird to me, and while I'm sure there's merits to Cinnamon that was enough to sour my tastes.

Calling Taco Bell tex-mex is dubious at best, as well! It's definitely inspired by it, and has had some influence on the restaurants since; but it's far too fast-food-y to be considered proper tex-mex. TB is in a category all its own creation, which is definitely not a bad thing.

I didn't hear a single thing about the game until after it was already dead, and that's why I'm not surprised it flopped.

If they'd done better(read: any) marketing or public testing, then it might have been at least salvageable, but from what I've read it seems like people weren't fans of the character designs and gameplay either.

The thing about IT for older folks is you have to be up for conversation too. Most of the customers I have only get out for church, so if I come out to see them it might be the first conversation they've had in days.

By definition? No.

But if there was a situation like that, I'm willing to bet people would default to using the "first" title anyway out of custom.

"First Grandchild" has been used previously (mostly tabloids), but I think the "first" term is usually limited to immediate family

I'm surprised they thought it was going to do well. I heard absolutely nothing about the game until after it launched, which is never a good sign to me.

If it was free, I'd definitely give it a try, but paid multiplayer shooters just aren't worth it to me anymore.

I can tell you, as someone who has done tax prep for friends for the last few years, that the customer service this year compared to last year was miles better. Shorter waits, less turnaround, I was actually kinda impressed.

I get why people downvoted this, but you're not entirely incorrect. The two "sides" do exist, they just both happen to be on the same side and aren't entirely opposites like "left" and "right" would imply.

Until we see a socioeconomic party platform that wants similar reforms to what is seen in the Nordics presently when it comes to policy, there's no true "left" party in the US, IMO

If I'm reading the referenced link right, the data is from 1886(?), so it's not terribly recent, either.
